Hillary Clinton's email probe took an interesting turn Thursday when emails released by watchdog group Judicial Watch showed that the former Secretary of State chose to use an unsecured home server despite being aware of the security risk it posed, according to The Hill.
The emails have been accessed by Judicial Watch as part of a lawsuit filed by the conservative group against the State Department under the Freedom of Information Act.
In an email exchange between Hillary Clinton and her then-Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, the former Secretary of State, after having returned from an overseas trip, asks Mills to connect with her over an unsecured line after initial attempts to get in touch over a secure line failed due to technical glitches.
"I called ops and they gave me your 'secure' cells… but only got a high-pitched whining sound," Clinton wrote to Mills, acknowledging that she could not gain access to her over a secure line.
"I just spoke to ops and called you reg line - we have to wait until we see each other b/c [the] technology is not working," Mills wrote back, suggesting Hillary to try the secure line again.
But the former secretary wrote back saying that she couldn't wait any longer.
"I give up. Call me on my home #," Clinton wrote to Mills.
